  1. Hi General

    Firstly i'd like to say the improvements made to the OS make the sit look a lot better! but would there be any chance of being able to select specific seats when buying tickets? for example i prefer a seat on an aisle(due to being quite tall) and when in the North Stand lower i prefer being towards the back of the block for a better view, obviously the box office staff have this capability and i've used it myself when working at the NEC a few years back, any chance of this happening?

    1. Milfner: You raise a point that has been commented on before...but with a slightly different twist to it. The away ticket scheme is a tough one because it requires both Clubs to agree on ticket prices. I won't go into a long spiel on this issue other than to say that the last time I entered the discussion of away ticket prices it resulted in a bit of a dust up over wrestling, pigs and mud. Forgive me if I sort of duck this one as I am not sure I could handle another go around with the media.

    But General we loved you even more for that! :D

    1. Randy and me...Match Day: Basically we have different routines. Randy gets to the Park about an hour before the game and spends time with the opposition owner, our own people and basically relaxes as best he can. He will spend time looking at the grounds and just chatting...a real cool customer. Having been around the Browns for so many years, he certainly has a calm attitude. That does NOT mean that he isn't ready for the game and excited by the atmosphere...he just keeps it close to his vest. During the game he watches everything intently. He knows the game, understands what is happening on the Pitch and is up and down in his seat just like any fan. He is a great competitor himself and lets his emotions show when we put one in the back of the net. He is Villa through and through so feels the same about results as any fan. My routine is quite different. I get to the Park 4 hours before game time and walk the stadium. I will hit each stand at least once and the Holte Pub and Holte Suite 2 or 3 times...I see many of you on those walk-abouts. During the game I will sit with Randy for a portion of the game and then head off to one or more of the stands to get a feel for the fans and the atmosphere and to check food kiosks, etc. Like Randy, I am a Villa fanatic so I let my emotions show when things are good or not so good. At the end of the day, Randy and I are no different than anyone else who comes to Villa Park. We want to see consistent, winning, football played with pace and skill and guts.

    Great insight General very interesting.
